Ranked from 6 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

Did you work in a team?
A one man team!

Was the resolution a challenge?
Not really, the game could have worked at a lower resolution, making this game with a high resolution would have been a bigger challenge.

What did you learn?
A jump'n'run does not need a high resolution and software rendering can still be used for games (and it is easy to develop).

Nice concept and music. Its a hard one.

Very cool game! The progression of gameplay feels good and keeps things interesting. The world was designed very well and the music was sweet too! Great job!

Great work! Good variety of obstacles, solid controls, neat music, but man, do I suck at platformers, died like a million times :D Also, loved that you can climb on the tutorial texts.

Developer

Thanks! Being able to climb the text is a side effect of storing the world as an image (saved me writing a map editor) and treating every non-black pixel as solid.

I beat it!

Nice work on this one. It's a simple concept, but it kept my attention. Hopefully more people play this one.
